I just can’t believe he can kick without falling off.
He shall stand, you shall fall!
Yeah he's so cool, I wish I could make $700 appear out of thin air but I'm broke
Soon that things gonna be the size of us and I'm gonna tell my kids it's bedtime and Optimus is gonna come kick me in the teeth
@@coppercommander119 i wanna live in that world.
@@ghostchaser1631 Fall in awe!
As a lifelong Transformers fan, this is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I want one.
Me too. But oof. $1000
$1000 schmekls sir
Yeah i saw it when prototype broke cover. Stuffs amazing i just cant break with a grand for a toy. Tho its a robot toy
@@captaintoyota3171 but it will be worth more in time, its a investment
and thats 999 just for optimus. if you want the full package, the trailer is an extra 750. yikes. im sure its totally worth it, but couldnt bring myself to, nor do i have the space to show it off.
No matter how old we get .... Tools, toys and tales will always peak our curiosity
The great 3 T’s
Truth
Ye👍🏿
Agreed
*pique
"'Till all are one."
Optimus saying this with pride, instead of grief is just great to hear.
I didn't expect him to transform that fast and stand up by itself, that's actually amazing...
...and he does the superhero landing...wow
I remember practicing so hard to make the sound of transforming. Even though it took me 3 times as long to make them transform. XD GOOD TIMES!
He’s got the touch, that’s for sure! 🙂
@@RedTachi Haha Ikr. Me too. 🤣
I've heard that's hard on the knee servos. 😉
If it started to talk with Cullen's voice. I would have passed out with joy.
That's not a toy. That's a work of art.
Under rated comment
@@anthony.catbagan Over rated reply.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ I prefer the book where Jesus blows Judas. I got it at some kind of manga festival.
Parabola?
woooooww
I can't wait for someone to build a life size version of this.
Look up Gundam in japan
@@scusemewhileiwhipout can it transform?
@@scusemewhileiwhipout Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that one thanks.
Although, is it able to transform into an alternate mode?
@@StardustLegacyFighter yeah the unicorn replica can transform to reveal the psycho frame
Its all fun and games until it becomes self aware!😂🤣😂🤣
I wish they can also make the Decepticons. Or at least just one of ‘em. Starscream would be a good idea.
Or better megatron
Negation surely tho star scream has the tape that pops out into a flying transformer in the cartoon!
@@e-scooterguy isn't that soundwave
@@tonidotcs actually your right it is! 🤦🏽
They need to make unicorn and galvatron
How many of us have waited ~35 years for this?
Huge props to the company, and yes $1000 is a lot of money for a toy, but that's actually less than I expected tbh.
I saw someone complaining about the price and i said the same thing, for all the movement it does and the sounds and the size of the thing, it's really not "that"expensive if that makes sense
but does it do anything apart from transforming and do different poses? is it a smart robot assistant as well?
@@Tompradoo I think the fact that you can program different animations is the only thing you can make it do.
OTOH ... I wouldn't be surprised if someone hacks the software and manages to upload Wolfenstein 3D / Doom / Pacman / Pong / Skyrim into it, because that's something that appears to be the first proof of concept of a functional hack :D
I think the Lego OP is about the same price.
MP-10 is better for a fifth the price
The people who designed this were fans for sure, a lot of love went into it.
The red panel behind his head is generally not shown in promo shots/video because Robosen know it looks terrible and not accurate and is a deal breaker for many!
@@colors6692 you just watched Optimus prime do sit-ups and you care about a 1 inch panel
@@colors6692 bro, you just watched optimus prime practice martial arts with Adam savage staring in awe behind him
I have bill to pay, I have bills to pay, I have bills to pay….
This thing is awesome, beats the hell out of the Lego model, a Transformer figure that's truly 'more than meets the eye'. Very impressive! 👍
The balance of Optimus is nothing short of amazing!
He needs a nerf asap imo. He's a little *too* balanced.
Of course...he's got the touch.
Whoever coded these Martial Arts moves did a hell of a Job. 👍
Granted, he does have a big foot plate to keep him balanced!
if a toy can do this. doom is near
Imagine how impressive it would be to have all 6 Constructicons automatically join together and form Devastator.
I'd sh$% myself and wouldn't care. 🤣.
Do not be surprised we might see that one day
We're probably gonna _see_ that, one day.
@@leeedwards2232 😂🤣😂... You jackass!!! I almost wet myself!!! 😂🤣😂
Devastator was my favorite toy. That would be a dream!
Cool toy.... really amazed that customers can program their own movements for Optimus. The "martial arts training" is NEXT level 👌
Amazing wish we had these in the 80’s!!!! I’d like to see all of the original ones do this how cool would that be?
Man, how expensive would that have been in the 80s tho?
@@APDaBaron probably 500$ but that’s like 2000$ today
Megatron would be the hardest one because he turned into a gun
I actually enjoyed doing the transforming by hand, it was the most fun part imo. This is cool to look at as an adult though.
@@andrewft31They have done Megatron by now. By the way, their version of Megatron transforms into a tank.
Fun fact: The "torso twist" goes back to 2003, with the first "Masterpiece" version of Optimus Prime and has been a staple of more modern takes on the G1 version of Prime.
It essentially allows for a more stylized grill, like he has in the show, and hides the "truck grill". Whereas the original G1 figure never rotated and just used the truck grill as the torso.
This is a fun fact, and one I wasn't aware of! I recall most of the transformation sequences were rooted in the original figures, though; it was a point of commentary for the 1980's movie that Galvatron was one of the first characters designed for animation first, without their being a figure available for him yet.
BW Optimus Primal had that part of his transformation as well and originally Primal was supposed to be Prime but in an animal body.
Torso twist is wrong.
The headmaster Optimus I have has a separate grill and windows modeled on the back side, where his arms fold up to hide them away in vehicle mode.
@@TheForeverRanger Not quite. The first version of Optimus Primal, the bat, was supposed to be Optimus Prime reborn, but Hasbro quickly retconned it when they worked with Mainframe to produce the TV series.
So the gorilla Optimus Primal, to which you're referring to, was never supposed to represent the original Optimus Prime. They're totally separate characters.
Ok, whoever created that martial arts sequence is God Tier. Props to the mechanical/software engineers for even making it all possible! Nothing short of game breaking.
...and they love the Transformers as much we do.
game? what game?
Even crazier is that they were able for him to keep his balance during the high kicks.
I wonder if there are gyros of some sort that help it maintain balance
Omg that vibe from street fighter/King of fighters 99 fighting movement 🔥
This is by far, the coolest toy ever
I may not know much about robotics, but I do know that bipedal balance was a huge struggle. I have enjoyed seeing the progress, but that was seriously impressive for a toy.
That is legitimately impressive on all fronts, and speaking as someone who works in the toy industry, I applaud the concept, engineering, and dev team for committing to seeing this project through despite what was assuredly an astronomical development cost, which is ALWAYS the determining factor that decides whether a toy gets made or not.
He's so stable. That is incredible. Really moves so lifelike too.
And the robot also!
Well he has a tad oversized legs/feet to make that happen, who knows maybe in the far future (boston dynamics) we can fix that as well
@@2nd3rd1st That made me giggle way too loud. XD
@@Decenium Theres no _"we"_ , its Japan, ma'am!
Imagine these in a fan film. Truly amazing
That kungfu animation and balance is amazing
This is just incredible. It's like how you imagined the toy should be when you were a kid
Agreed!
If our transformer toys did this we would have never stopped playing with them.
If I had seen this as a kid I would have focused more on STEM and robotics.
Amazing. Finally what we used to dream that our optimus toy would do back in the 80s and 90s has become a reality.
Exactly. It looks like the same transformation from the 80s toy!
couldnt they do it back then, just not automactically?
@@randomrazr yeah
Adam is the best toy reaction person ever man. I feel the way he engages with us and the product. Even if the toy is a simple one he can explain it and explore it in a way that feel otherworldly
I had the original prime semi and trailer in the 80s. If I would have seen this version back then, I would have lost my mind lol.. what kind of sorcery is this? 🤣🤯
If only Grant were here to see this, he'd make some programming/mechanical magic with this
This comment caught me off guard and made me a bit sad for a number of reasons.
I miss Grant
He's probably already created a life-size one in his workshop in the sky🤖
I had this exact thought. He would've loved this.
Right in the feels! RIP Grant. You're missed.
Just downloaded the motion sequence "Kung Fu Master" for my Robosen Prime a couple days ago and was BLOWN AWAY! Prime literally does a full kata including "powerful" sidekicks where he is balancing on just one leg while kicking like it was nothing. That's some ingenious design at play here!
It’s genuinely incredible it has the articulation, power and balance to pull that off. Those kicks are insane
Real life size one will be able to kick a hole through a concrete wall
Video!
Give that toy to me
Is it able to actually walk around as well?
😮😮 The nostalgia is on 1000% right now!
I saw this on another ad and I freaking squealed like a kid. My childhood coming to life here. ❤
If you could time travel back to the 80's and show kids this, it'll absolutely blow their minds. 😊
You can do it now , they are 40 year olds . Mind is blown but not surprised. Absolutely amazing
As a kid in 80's that collected Transformers....I would have turned to a life of crime to have one of these back then😯
Just messaged my two boys exactly the same thing.
Born in 80. Mind Blown.
Can confirm.
This is like a toy you'd see in a Christmas movie that's impossible for the protagonist to get but it's also like way more advanced than any kid's toys that actually exist, but now it actually does exist. I would love to see a custom paint job on this thing.
Kids Toy?
This is a MANS toy!
Turbo man!!
@@krabmanmcdanstan2792 its turbo time
This is not for kids!😂 imagine they break it?!? U will go nuts ...🤯😡🤬this is for us the dads toys!!🤪
I know you…. You’re boostah!
Adam's joy in this is contagious
This is pretty insane! I would have lost my mind if I had this as a kid. Incredible
And the fact that they even made it transform exactly how he does in the tv show is amazing.
Prime does not spin at the torso/hips. He stands straight forward
@@sstrykert yeah there wasnt one. Either way, pretty awesome toy
@@mc8135 your grammar makes no sense about my criticisms of the transformation
@@sstrykert wtf 😂😂 suck a dick man you either dumb af or trying to be a smart ass, I’m bilingual and I even knew what he meant.
@@gustavoflores5038 yeah your 9 year old account with no subs if definitely bi-something. If they made Optimus Prime's oil drippings you'd probably buy that too.
Now if only they'd work on making full size Transformers. We need them to fight the Decepticons.
To fight inflation
@@Donkey_Balls the economy is just as deceptive
@@eros439 Todays Economy! More than meets the eye!!!!
Decepticons aka Politicians
To fight Leftists.
You are so lucky!! Thank you for playin with us!👏👏🤣😂
Now Adam has to build one of his own!
I was impressed by the smoothness of the transformation, but the martial arts training animation blew my mind. That was insane.
We are truly living the times when autobot toys can now transform themselves. That’s awesome!
also, this an RC semitruck that you can control by the apps. You have everything you wish for as a kid and more.
@@manchesterunitedno7 so you can actually drive this too? That's awesome.
@@sam8404 Yup. Just like an RC should.
This company should make “Small Soldier” Toy’s.
I watched it Yesterday 😄
Awsome toy. "Mythbusters" was an awsome show, I miss it so much. Cheers from Mexico.
For those wondering the little vehicle with the trailer is named Roller with Spike Witwicky.
Badly out of G1 proportion, but that's Transformers!
I was shocked when they didn't know the name for it. Not hardcore G1 fans for sure. Maybe just casuals?
It's so articulate and well designed. The movements are so fluid I kept having to go back and rewatch because it almost looks like it was CGI'd in during post.
This is simultaneously incredible and amazing, yet utterly terrifying
Why
@@daveeol1987 Imagine this scaled up and used in warfare. It stopped being a cartoon, it's real now.
I have a part of my 2023 bonus earmarked for this! As a Gen X that grew up on Transformers, this is the best thing I've ever seen!
Just the joyful laugh at the first transformation, yes Adam's living that 80s kid dream
That quick turn he does while transforming, a Super kick and damn those Push ups that really sold me. Never thought the technology has progressed this far mainly because we see those on screen through vfx + cgi
Right when I thought the transformation is the most awesome thing I have seen from any toy, Optimus did the kicking .... blown away!!!
Oh man i wish i could have shown this to my dad back when he was a teenager, still, he was absolutely ecstatic when he saw Optimus transforming
Optimus looks and moves amazingly, was really impressed with the one legged stance during the kick! But the trailer has a lot more potential
yeah the trailer was meh in my opinion. all that space
Not really, the trailer really served no real purpose for the Gen 1 Optimus other than as a hauler for that smaller vehicle and opening to the turret and that was it. It did nothing else. Was the same for the old Gen 1 toys as well.
Hell in the original Gen 1 cartoon I can only remember once where it actually was used..otherwise it would simply vanish into thin air when Optimus would transform and never be seen being used for anything.
@@xJamesLaughx What does the trailer do here? It opens up and has a turret at the end. Obviously that is really dissapointing coming after Optimus which has a cooler startup animation, a nice look final transformation, and practically unlimited movements after the fact. Like the trailer is massive. You brought up it being a hauler for smaller vehicles, so they could have added that.
I'm judging the robot, not what it was in the cartoon.
Definitely lacking on the trailer. It needs to physically connect to Optimus then transform while unloading a small car, tank, etc. I’m guessing it’s limitations are why it’s not publicly available.
@@Juberdingus it should be the charging station, iirc this optimus couldnt stand when it's off, so the trailer should be his stand, base or something.
The ability to add your own movements is amazing
Yes, pretty cool…it sets a high standard and apart from others.
I love watching you guys. Like when we were 8 years old and unboxing Christmas presents... 😊
I had one of the Transformers: Armada Optimus Prime that you partly transform and it finishes the transformation itself. This is seriously next-level!
Absolutely incredible. I mean what kid wouldn’t want to have this, let alone an adult! Honestly the robotic animatronic and programming language skills to do this is incredibly advanced. This should win some awards.
This is awesome imagine if you had another robot that had opposite movements then you could choreograph a real fight
Brilliant! Or to move them via remote control to fight. Bring on Megatron!!!!!
Or imagine a whole collection of them and you just casually had miniature wars for Cybertron in your living room!

You read my mind
I'm 42 and I have wished for this since I was a kid in the 80's. I started watching them back in 87-90's era. I'm really glad I lived long enough to see this happen
every single 80's kids dream toy.
*Adam Savage being a fellow Transformers' fan made my day*
"It's a great time to be a 55 y.o. kid." love it!
I was just born at the time Transformers was in syndication on tv all the time in the early '80s, it was my favourite sunday morning viewing. When the michael bay movies came out I was optimistic to see them but it never seemed like being a kid again. the xbox one game "transformers: devastation" was the closest new realization, also a pretty great game. this robot is insane. all he needs is an "autobots, rollout," which is probably programmable too.
As a lifelong Adam and Mythbusters fan I'm always extremely happy to see Adam happy with any new toy or tool he gets :) he's so passionate about the things he does it's very inspiring and heartwarming
The engineering behind this is insane
"Thank you very much"_ china🇨🇳😁✌
@brandonw007 here. Im a collector of boxed toys and resin sculptures. So I just spent the last 2 hours researching how to but the correct items. It's about 1500 for both the truck and the collectors edition version of OPTIMUS Prime. They are made from Abs- aluminum alloy and plastic. You can buy 1 from Robosen. The other is a purchase from Hasbro. I collect all sorts of toys and if I didn't just get a 1/4scale resin of Stanz-dan Akroid, from ghostbusters and a walking dead resin figure with Daryl Dixon, Negan and Rick dioramas, I would buy this is a minute...still thinking about it! Nice video boys
That's cool.
Miss u Adam and the Mythbusters
I'm so impressed by how it can balance it's center of gravity so accurately and make kicks without falling! What ingenuity, these are the next generation of toys :O
Awesome robot toys are still impressive no matter how old I get
That martial arts training animation. Chef's kiss!
A lot of creativity and design went into that transforming robot. 👍
All I could think of as soon as I saw Adam the first time it Transformed was, I bet Grant would have loved to see this. I bet Grant would have been part of a team that programmed these.
My jaw dropped on that first watch.
His pure excitement is the greatest thing ever. He must have imagined this in his head so many times as a kid.
This is the perfection of the original 80's toy. 👏
Adam's excitement at things like this never ceases to make me smile!
This is the best thing I've ever seen in my feed on TH-cam!
I've been wanting one of these for quite a while
If you manually transformed the original toy and watched the cartoon... this is amazingly accurate. The head and body twist are completely accurate
Those custom animations are wild! If you had shown me these and told me it was stop motion animation I'd believe you! Wild that it can do that in real time on its own!
As I understands it there is no real attempt at making it a walking robot. That is there's no gyro or any way for the toy to know if it is about to fall. The custom animation shown had to be hand crafted with attention to keep the center of gravity squarely over the feet. Making it kick must have been a nightmare to program as there are no sensors to help it keep the balance. That's also why they were a bit concerned about the leather surface on the desk. Several moves rely on the feet sliding. To little or to much friction and it can fall over because CG moves outside the contact patch of the feet.
I'm not saying it isn't impressive what they've been able to create, but it's no Asimov or Big Dog, and that's perfectly fine as it's a toy for men with money enough to spend on the toy they whished they'd had back when they were kids and watched the show on TV 30 years ago.
Pure epicness, I feel so happy just to live the times where amazing stuff like this are possible! My only regret is, it will be more expensive than I will ever be able to have and afford, but to all who will be able to, enjoy it and cherish it! :)
Wow, I absolutely want one of these. Brilliant workmanship. Nice review boys.
Nostalgia is such an awesome feeling. Seeing this gave me goosebumps. I would've loved to watch this thing for hours as a kid. Amazing job by the company.
I remember in the 80's when Transformers were the hottest thing, Optimus was near impossible to get. Some places sold him for over $200 which was ridiculous. I never owned him but I did own a lot of other models. This version would have sold like hot cakes back in the day!
Imagine a whole set full of these, and you can have the autobots, and Decepticon
This is by far the coolest toy I've seen for the transformers franchise. Only problem is it costs way too much, but it'd be so worth it if it wasn't so expensive
if it wasn't so expensive, every fan of transformer should have one.
Honestly I like the Grimlock one better. Also that giant Unicron toy is great as well.
For all Transformers fans since the beginning, we all had to believe that THIS is what it's all been leading up to!
This is the absolutely coolest thing I have seen in a while. That diesel engine start sound made me giggle. It was a really nice touch.
Now i want to see a Decepticon one, this is the peak of Transformers toys
Awesome video Adam. The trailer is "Combat Deck" and the Drone is "Roller", which are the to component parts of Optimus Prime.
Adam's excitement when Optimus transforms for the first time is exactly how I felt when I saw it. What a time to be alive!
This and moon pies, what a time to be alive.
love that he is breathing :)
As a kid who grew up with the original animated Transformers show (still the best), this is literally the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life!!! I absolutely have to have this if there's any way I can possibly afford it.
Im glad I watched the whole thing. That was really way cooler than I expected. ❤
Better than anyone could even THINK of it being! 💯💯💯
The auto-transformations definitely the popular feature, but it blows my mind how it's able to do complex poses and actions like kicks without falling (AND YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN POSES OR DOWNLOAD AND TRY OTHERS). While it's still too much for me, I will say they could've definitely charged more for this considering how advance it is.
I love that they make the signature Transformers sound!
This is the best collectors edition Toy I've ever seen :)
As someone who watched the original cartoons when they came out...very cool...
55 year old kid...didn't know I was an older kid than Adam.
